In 1976, the Pelican story began with a simple yet ingenious creation by scuba enthusiast Dave Parker in Torrance, CA. He fashioned a safety tool using twine wrapped around a hockey stick handle and also a metal weight. He named the “Pelican Float.” This innovative gadget was designed to float on the water’s surface. It would also mark locations for divers.  This was a tool with the potential to save lives.

Dave’s passion as well as commitment led him to expand his vision. He developed a high-quality first-aid kit for divers. These kits were encased in rugged and waterproof containers. Divers as well as outdoor enthusiasts quickly realized that these cases were perfect for safeguarding valuable items from water and dust.

From this modest beginning, Pelican emerged as a global leader. A leader in designing and manufacturing high-performance protective cases, temperature-controlled packaging, and advanced portable lighting systems.

Throughout the years, Pelican’s products have been embraced by diverse professionals. These products have stood up to incredible challenges, enduring rough handling, submersion, and extreme conditions.

Today, Pelican boasts a global presence. The company’s growth has been driven by global expansion, strategic acquisitions, and innovative product introductions.

Despite the company’s remarkable journey and global reach, Pelican remains firmly rooted in its commitment to quality and the trust of its customers. When you choose a Pelican product, you’re not just getting a high-quality protective case or lighting system; you’re putting your trust in a legacy that values the safety and security of everything you value. Pelican continues to uphold its legacy, embracing the calling and duty it has honored for over 40 years: building products that are truly built to protect.
